Construction of Halbach Array
Would it be feasible to construct a Halbach cylinder from a cylindrical bird cage of diametrically polarized permanent magnetic discs or rods?
If so, would it be possible to stack and bond discs?
I am ...

How symmetric Halbach array can produce asymmetric magnetic field?
I don't understand. If I look at a picture of Halbach array
I see it is apparently symmetric. At least both pairs of opposite sides are.
Then how can it have "weak" and "strong" opposite sides?

Halbach array magnetic polarity
Above is a Halbach array arrangement of magnets that has its field flux concentrated on one side and cancelled out on the other. Now I wish to know the polarity (if there exist any) of the side with ...

Halbach array and levitation
Full disclosure: I am a total novice when it comes to physics apart from being very curious and basic physics classes at school level (long long ago).
Using 16 mm diameter disc magnets. I am ...

Magnetic monopoles in Halbach array?
I am a bit confused by the description of Halbach arrays. It is said that the line of magnets aligned in a certain way results in cancellation of magnetic field on one side of the array, and ...

Induction and Halbach array
I have recently studied and tried to understand the concept of the Inductrack, a form of magnetic levitation.
In the following link they present three different ways to construct the track:
